Chen Ping'an's forced invasion was blocked by waves of precise and orderly arrows. The direct line soldiers placed by General Ma in the governor's mansion were all top-notch warriors brought back from the border. They had amazing physical strength and long-term endurance.
After being tested on the battlefield, even when faced with a mountain man, Chen Ping'an still cooperated tacitly. Chen Ping'an got up from the roof and flew over, and fell into the depths of the county governor's mansion. In this short process, which took only a blink of an eye, he had to use
His hands deflected two menacing and extremely accurate arrows.
The girl with the silver bell shouted loudly: "I am Liu Gaoxin, the daughter of the county guard. The old fairy is an ally here to help. I beg you to put down your bows and arrows!"
Chen Ping'an's figure landed at the entrance of the main hall of the official residence. Without turning his head, he took two steps sideways and reached out to hold an arrow that was shot from behind. The arrow was engraved with simple cloud patterns and had three subtle concave marks.
Groove, during which the brilliance flowed, Chen Pingan threw it away, set the arrow into the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Xu Daxia, Zhang Shan, are you in the lobby? The old man who showed his magical powers on the high platform in the middle of the lake that night is the City God Pavilion this time.
The person behind the disaster!"
The bearded man flew out first, followed closely by the armored general and Taoist priest Zhang Shanfeng.
A brass warrior who was more than ten feet tall rushed towards him with big strides. Without saying a word, he punched Chen Pingan. Chen Pingan had to stretch out his palm to block the fist. Taoist Chongmiao carefully painted this yellow statue with talismans.
The Bronze Warrior has good strength. Although his appearance is not high, his combat power is comparable to that of a pure martial artist at the peak of the second level. However, after Chen Pingan blocked his fist with his five fingers, the joints of his body shook violently and made bursts of hissing sounds, but he was still unable to move forward.
Every cent.
Liu Taishou also ran out of the gate quickly, looked up, saw the girl with a silver bell standing on the wall, and immediately shouted: "It's my daughter, it's my daughter Liu Gaoxin, you warriors, please don't hurt her accidentally."
!”
The bearded swordsman also quickly explained to others: "It's our friend named Chen Ping'an who went to investigate the authenticity of Chenghuang Pavilion."
The armored general nodded, raised his arm and made a military gesture. The archers lurking everywhere did not immediately put away the strong bows in their hands. They just pressed the arrows downward, as tight as the arc of the full moon. At the same time,
The shape of the retracted arc moon is exactly the same, almost even the change in arc is the same.
Xu Yuanxia, who has traveled to many countries, is very attentive. When she saw this scene, she was immediately amazed. She never thought that a place full of books like Caiyi Country could have such a well-trained tiger and wolf division. That person
General Ma, who is now in charge of the east gate of the city, must be a talented man who can manage the army well.
Taoist Chongmiao made a secret to recall the brass warrior who had a bad start. His face was not very good, and he sneered: "Is Old Immortal Huang the mastermind? Hahaha, you young man with a yellow mouth and white teeth, I think you are the one who wants to
A scoundrel who wants to fish in troubled waters!"
The old Taoist with bright Taoist robes turned his head and said to Prefect Liu and the military commander: "If Huang, the immortal with great Taoism, is the mastermind with ulterior motives, then what are we still planning here? We might as well wait to die. Besides, Huang
If the murderer is always behind the scenes, why take off your pants and fart and take the initiative to warn us?"
Liu Taishou pondered: "It doesn't make sense."
The general said something fair on behalf of the young man, "The evil heretic is best at making dangerous moves, and cannot be judged by common sense. It is best for us not to trust anyone at the moment. We might as well listen to what the young man has to say first."
The girl Liu Gaoxin jumped off the wall and ran all the way. Her movements were full of aura, especially the tinkling of the silver bells, and golden ripples floating around her. She was clearly a practitioner who had entered the palace. Liu Taishou could not think about why his daughter
He turned into a flying fairy. When his little daughter came to his side, he immediately said anxiously: "Are there any injuries? You stinky girl, the county and city are in such chaos now, why are you running around and making such nonsense!"
Liu Gaoxin pointed at Chen Pingan, "Old fairy..."
She suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing, because when she was on the way, the old god with earth-shattering flying sword skills specifically told her not to talk more about the battle in Chenghuang Pavilion. He was not willing to reveal his identity yet, lest the county magistrate's office would also have trouble.
The insider responsible for the evil spirit had already started to be wary.
Liu Gaoxin quickly made up for it, "Chen Ping'an, Chen Shaoxia and I encountered a female ghost with withered bones in the Chenghuang Pavilion. It was the beauty in colorful clothes and talismans who first appeared on the high platform in the middle of the lake that night. She was one of the demons that harmed the county. I and
Chen Shaoxia finally subdued him, but unexpectedly, the City God and the two statues of civil and military officials were possessed by demons. Black smoke billowed out from the seven orifices, and they were about to kill us. Fortunately, an old immortal who could fly a sword appeared and saved us.
He killed us, but the old god was also seriously injured and wanted us to report first. The guy named Huang and his allies were plotting a magic weapon. He asked me to send a message to dad that we must not lead the wolf into the house! The old god also said that when necessary,
After he has recuperated his Qi Hai and his natal flying sword, he will definitely take action again to help us slay demons!"
Chen Ping'an looked calm, and in his heart he praised the girl's quick thinking.
Compared with the Zhu Lu in Qidun Mountain and the group of young people in bright clothes and angry horses in front of the ruined temple, the girl with a silver bell named Liu Gaoxin is indeed much better.
Everyone quickly returned to the main hall. Before they could sit down, a blood-stained armored warrior entered. It was said that in the county, people who appeared to be trapped in demons appeared in many places and started killing people crazily. No matter whether they were relatives, friends or neighbors, they were not spared.
, these common people in the county and city, who are like pure warriors who have gone crazy, have one thing in common, that is, there is blood oozing from the eye sockets, and their bodies are quite strong, which is extremely difficult. Many government soldiers and police officers have been injured.
Not only that, there were several places in the county, including stone arch bridges crowded with tourists and secluded alleys, where scarlet light appeared almost at the same time. Within a radius of more than ten feet, the grass and trees were withered and yellow, and the belly of swimming fish turned white.
The atmosphere in the main hall was solemn. Liu Taishou forced himself to calm down and began to arrange his troops. In addition to sending people to the east gate of the city to inform General Ma to be careful of the old immortal Huang, everyone in the hall formed a team of two and went there together.
There are weird things everywhere, just in case something unexpected happens. If you find any demons or monsters obstructing the people, you can kill them immediately.
In addition, all subordinate officials in the county governor's mansion must leave the official residence and inform the people in the city to return home immediately and are not allowed to go out for the time being. Once discovered, they will be severely punished for violating the night prohibition law. The bearded swordsmen Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng are together, one
A pure martial artist, a Taoist priest, just matched. Taoist Chongmiao and the armored general, under Liu Gaoxin's strong request, she followed Chen Ping'an. No matter how selfless the prefect Liu was, how could he rest assured that his precious daughter would be involved in danger?
A martial artist volunteered to help Chen Ping'an go to the gate of the Zhao Mansion. Liu Taishou then gave many instructions to Liu Gaoxin not to be impulsive and to obey the instructions of the two masters.
Of course, Liu Gaoxin was overjoyed and agreed wholeheartedly. Prefect Liu was afraid that she would not take it seriously, so he held her back and warned her again.
The girl became a little impatient, and suddenly the "Old Sword Immortal" who did not look old beside her said, "Miss Liu, don't worry the prefect."
Liu Gaoxin was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw that Chen Ping'an was neither angry nor clinging to his old age, as if he simply wanted her to do a better job on the matter at hand. Although Liu Gaoxin didn't understand what was going on, she still
After biding farewell to his father patiently and ensuring that he would not act out of emotion, Liu Taishou felt a little relieved. Finally, he thanked Chen Ping'an and the warrior with clasped fists and said sincerely: "My little girl, I owe you two knights for taking care of me."
The two returned the favor.
The three of them hurried to the Zhao Mansion, which was only two streets away from the official residence.
The warrior surnamed Dou raised his head and glanced at the sky, shook his head, and said with emotion: "Whether it's a god or a demon on the mountain, in fact, in his heart, he never takes human life seriously. This shouldn't be the case."
Chen Ping'an didn't know how to answer, so he had to remain silent.
The three of them arrived outside the Zhao Mansion. The demon-impaired men and women with blood oozing from their eyes rushed out, baring their teeth and claws, and running quickly. The swordsmen and archers outside were mostly county police officers and government officials. They usually dealt with big thieves and petty thieves at most.
, I have never seen this scene before. Most of their faces were as white as snow, and the accuracy of their bows and arrows was unsightly. Moreover, those maidservants of the Zhao family who were possessed by demons were still able to move forward even if they were hit by arrows. Chen Ping'an saw with his own eyes a full-faced lady.
The boy with blood on his face was hit in the chest by a powerful and heavy arrow within twenty steps. His whole body was carried away by the huge penetrating force. After he fell to the ground, he stood up with a struggle.
Most of the arrows were still inserted, and he continued to charge forward while vomiting blood.
The crude formation of the archers and quick swordsmen was almost defeated at once, and they had to fight hand-to-hand with those fierce demons who were not afraid of death. If Chen Ping'an and the others hadn't arrived just in time, and the people from the Zhao family kept pouring out, I'm afraid they would have been killed.
It will spread all over the place, forming a disaster similar to a swarm of locusts. Chen Ping'an didn't know if there was a way to resolve the demonic obstacles, but he used his fists and kicks to fight off the Zhao Mansion's demonic obstacles back to the gate. Liu Gaoxin's bell rang loudly, and golden flowers scattered in all directions.
, as long as those demonic obstacles are touched by golden flowers, they will fester all over and turn into a pool of blood and pus, with a fishy stench rising to the sky.
After the swordsman surnamed Dou drew his sword out of its sheath, the blade emitted a dazzling white light. Every time he slashed, he directly cut the demonic man, woman, and child in half. This warrior's sword skills were extremely good, and he had clearly reached the stage of returning to nature.
At the level of a master, he is straightforward and his moves are straight forward without any sloppiness. However, compared to the swordsmanship of the bearded swordsman Xu Yuanxia, this person's swordsmanship lacks the rough atmosphere of the battlefield and has more of a superb atmosphere. It is very possible that
He is a martial arts master who has advanced to the top of the martial arts world. From this, it can be seen that the invisibility in the main hall of the official residence is more like what is called in the world of real people.
After Liu Gaoxin blocked a wave of demonic obstacles from the Zhao family, he found that the ground around him was covered with blood and broken limbs. He suddenly squatted down and started vomiting.
The red light in the Zhao Mansion flashed away, exuding a strong gloomy atmosphere.
Chen Ping'an saw that there was no danger at the entrance of Zhao's Mansion for the time being. He tiptoed and quickly passed over the high wall as light as a swallow, heading straight to the place where the red light started.
Following the clues of the red light, Chen Ping'an came to an elegant and quiet courtyard with a three-story private library. There was a young man in white sitting on the steps outside the building, sitting lazily, with his elbow on the handle of the chair and one hand holding his hand.
Cheeks, holding an ancient book in one hand, yawning.
The extraordinary handsome young master looked at Chen Ping'an sideways and said with a smile: "Why did you come so late? This young master is extraordinary. Is he an immortal master who practices Taoism on the mountain? Or is he a disciple of a master who walks around the world?"
Sitting up straight, the young master of the Zhao family dipped his fingers in his saliva and gently turned over a page of the book. Suddenly, another scarlet light flashed between the pages.
The red light gathered into a thick rope, twisting and swaying in the air like a snake and python. It lingered briefly on the high wall of the courtyard, and then rushed into somewhere in the mansion, trying to attach itself to everyone in the mansion.
Chen Pingan patted the sword gourd on his waist.
The scarlet snake python was chopped to pieces.
The young man in white raised his eyebrows, "Hey, you are still a little sword immortal? It's amazing. I heard that the sword cultivators in the lower five realms have great killing power, but they can easily lose their physical strength. With a few mouthfuls of sword energy, they are dazzling, but very...
It’s easy to say nothing, but I just don’t know if you are more powerful?”
The young man in white holds a book in one hand and flips through an ancient book from beginning to end with the other hand.
Dozens of small scarlet snakes as thick as thumbs soared into the sky from the library and were about to disperse in all directions. However, when the young man in white saw the young man hanging the gourd of vermilion wine, he was still in the mood to take off the wine gourd.
He took a sip of wine from the pot, but before the noble son of the Zhao family could laugh out loud, he stopped laughing.
Because those little red snakes named Chi Lian in the sky were all cut away by a criss-crossing white rainbow in an instant.
Then his brows turned cold, and his eyes suddenly widened, as if he had seen a ghost in the daytime and refused to close his eyes.
It turned out that not only was the flying sword pierced through the head from the center of the eyebrow, but the sword energy that penetrated into the body and soul shattered all life in an instant with lightning speed.
When Chen Pingan put away the wine gourd, the two flying swords on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month returned to the sword gourd.
On the other side of the courtyard wall, the swordsman named Dou stood on the top of the wall. After seeing this, he cupped his fists and saluted Chen Ping'an.
Chen Ping'an thought about it and said to him: "Tell Liu Gaoxin that I want to go to the Tutu Temple right away and come back as soon as I go."
The swordsman smiled heartily and said: "There is no serious problem here. There are only three or two kittens and puppies. Master Chen Xian, just feel free to go."
Chen Ping'an was a little helpless. He originally wanted to fight quickly, but he never thought that he would be caught in the act of killing the enemy with his flying sword. After nodding to the martial arts hero, he tiptoed and his figure quickly disappeared.
————
Chen Pingan ran all the way, jumped over the wall, and finally followed the "voice" of the intermittent ripples in the heart lake and the instructions of "that man", and came to a deserted earth temple. When he looked up, he saw the
Beside him, there was an elegant scholar waving to him, with a smile on his face, but his figure was swaying, like the last light, extinguished by the slightest breeze.
Chen Ping'an hesitated for a moment, then swept away.
The god stood inside the dimly lit threshold, and Chen Pingan stood outside the slightly brighter threshold.
The scribe first bowed and saluted, then stood up and said with a smile: "This is the second time we have met. I, Shen Wen, am the City God of Rouge County. I have been watching this city for hundreds of years. The results today are the results of the past.
, I was the one who neglected my duty first. If you had not broken the restriction and successfully prevented me from falling into the devil's way, the upright Jin Chenghuang of the Caiyi Kingdom might have acted as an aide in the end and become a murderer who harmed the people under his jurisdiction. My officer
Thank you."
Having said this, the scribe smiled casually and said: "Before, I was possessed by a demon without realizing it, so all my actions made the little immortal laugh. Thank you this time. Since you helped me, I will not go out and harm the people of Li. It will be remembered in history books for thousands of years. I would like to thank you for your innocent heart and your willingness to return the blue wooden box."
When he first entered the City God's Hall, the boy returned the wooden box, which was a good deed.
He was clearly carrying a square-inch object, but when he handed over the wooden box, he did not take it out of the square-inch object, but directly from his sleeve. This means that the foreign boy in front of him believed that the wooden box belonged to the City God's Hall from the very beginning.
This is another kind of kindness, a kind heart.
Chen Ping'an looked at Shen Chenghuang carefully, and he could no longer see any traces of being possessed, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He hesitated for a moment, cupped his fists and said: "Before, in the City God's Hall, in order to protect myself, I had no choice but to destroy the golden body of the City God..."
The City God, who was no longer showing off with the statue of the Golden City God, waved his hand, changed the subject, and asked: "Master Xiaoxian, are you a scholar?"
Chen Ping'an felt a little ashamed, shook his head and said: "I'm not a scholar. Now I can just flip through books and take notes. I hope to know more words and learn more about the principles of life in books."
Shen Chenghuang asked with a smile: "Do you know the use of the golden body fragments?"
Chen Ping'an still shook his head, he really didn't know.
Shen Chenghuang said softly: "Those golden body fragments must be kept well. The gods who enjoy sacrificial incense in the world, whether they are the gods of mountains and rivers, or we, the city god, and the civil and military temples, all have golden bodies. First, they were enshrined by the imperial court and made into statues. , and then the spiritual light and divinity nourished by the gods themselves. However, the golden body is also divided into high and low ranks, similar to the officialdom. Generally, the golden body of the Five Sacred Gods has the highest rank, followed by the water god of the river, and the city god of the capital. , and so on."
"That cyan wooden box contains the 'Xianyou Bo Seal of the City God of Rouge County of Caiyi Country', which was personally carved and given by a certain generation of Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master's Mansion. It is a piece of treasure that contains the mighty power of Heaven. This extremely powerful magical weapon only needs to be used in conjunction with the Five Thunder Heart Techniques. Although I am the current City God of Rouge County, as a god, I cannot use the Taoist Thunder Technique. In fact, when the Tianshi Mansion rewarded this object, I It has more symbolic meaning, helping to protect the Feng Shui of a county, rather than letting the Caiyi National Qi Practitioner or the City God use palm prints to demonstrate. If this small Celestial Master Seal had not invisibly deterred the demons, the mass grave outside the city would have formed an early , the resentment is very strong, and he has long been planning to rush into Rouge County."
Chen Ping'an thought for a while and asked: "Do you need me to hand it over to Prefect Liu for you? Or should I hand it over to your Emperor Caiyi?"
City God Shen Wen looked carefully at those clear eyes, waved his sleeves, and laughed loudly: "The teachings of the saints, the divine weapons of heaven and earth, can only be held by the virtuous!"
